US EditionUS Curbs Chip Design Software, Chemicals, Other Shipments to China
- The US government has ordered companies to stop shipping chip design software, chemicals, and other sensitive goods to China without licenses as of late May 2025.
- This directive follows heightened export controls initiated under the Trump administration aiming to limit China's access to advanced semiconductor technologies during ongoing trade negotiations.
- Major EDA software firms including Cadence, Synopsys, and Siemens EDA received notices requiring licenses for exports to China, affecting their substantial market shares there.
- Shares of Cadence and Synopsys dropped over 9 percent following the announcement, while US Commerce confirmed it is reviewing strategic exports and has suspended some existing licenses pending review.
- The restrictions signal intensified US efforts to curb China’s semiconductor development, possibly escalating tensions and pressuring both sides amid a fragile truce in trade relations.
